COMMUNITY SURVEY

In March/April 2021 we opened a survey to identify how the club can better meet the needs of the local community. It was focussed on finding out what the wider community (not just Black Isle) might want from the club and how it could help them access a variety of water sports. We had nearly 140 responses showing a high level of current interest. The results will help inform our development plan. Many thanks to all that took part.

WELCOME

On our website you'll find a great deal of information about our activities.

Membership is open to all ages interested in sailing and rowing.
Basic, refresher and advanced training and coaching sessions are conducted along with a variety of shore-based courses. The club has some sailing dinghies for the use of members.
For yacht owners, we have summer trot moorings (boats up to 32 foot) and our own small drying harbour. There is intra- and inter-club racing as well as a programme of organised cruises.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

Great sailing experience in the idyllic area, Moray Firth between Fortrose and Rosemarkie on the Black Isle, Scotland, where is one of the best spots in the UK to view Bottlenose dolphin and other wildlife, including porpoises and grey seals.

Friendly, diverse and active membership with a lively social scene.
Come along and join us whenever a club activity is on.
Club dinghies and private boats space available for active members.
An active coastal rowing group with two St Ayles rowing skiffs.

"Taster" sailing and rowing for potential new members.

“Recreational Sailing on Friday Evening” will be on Fridays from 19.00 during the summer. This is an ideal opportunity for members to sail with safety cover but without the pressures of racing.
A comfortable club house with facilities to high standard and a galley and waterside balcony.
Competitive mixed fleet and class dinghy racing (Lasers/Musto Skiffs/Streakers/RS Teras etc.) throughout the season.
